Bioenergetics of the obligate intracellular parasite Rickettsia prowazekii
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Bioenergetics, 1998 Mitochondria are thought to be derived from an ancestor of the alpha-proteobacteria and more specifically from the Rickettsiaceae. The bioenergetic repertoire of the obligate intracellular parasite Rickettsia prowazekii is consistent with its postulated role as the ancestor of the mitochondria. For example, the R.

Measure representation and multifractal analysis of complete genomes [PDF]
, 2001 This paper introduces the notion of measure representation of DNA sequences. Spectral analysis and multifractal analysis are then performed on the measure representations of a large number of complete genomes. The main aim of this paper is to discuss the

Tropism and pathogenicity of rickettsiae
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2012 Rickettsiae are obligate intracellular parasitic bacteria that cause febrile exanthematous illnesses such as Rocky Mountain spotted fever, Mediterranean spotted fever, epidemic and murine typhus, etc. Although the vector ranges of each Rickettsia species

Economic game theory to model the attenuation of virulence of an obligate intracellular bacterium [PDF]
, 2016 Diseases induced by obligate intracellular pathogens have a large burden on global human and animal health. Understanding the factors involved in the virulence and fitness of these pathogens contributes to the development of control strategies against ...

Gene organization of the dnaA region of Wolbachia [PDF]
, 1998 The dnaA region of Wolbachia, an intracellular bacterial parasite of insects, is unique. A glnA cognate was found upstream of the dnaA gene, while neither of the two open reading frames detected downstream of dnaA has any homologue in the database.
